It was after 10 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Dan and I were sitting there going over the recent rugby, prepared for the 6th job of the day to come in. Inevitably we received a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Telford and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mazda rental car by mistake. She was rather troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to worry, and that such things can happen. She had managed to get the car into a protected position and, as it was just a short distance from where we were, we were able to reach her right away.

Our Areas of Experience :

We are ready to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it if you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? It is definitely harmful to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be pushed into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, causing disastrous and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it immediately. And definitely don't switch on the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. If you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank may well cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases fairly easily.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to parking spot we can access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel.
